Happy weekend… it’s cocktail time! Pour yourself a fresh, citrusy and delightful gin and tonic, then put your feet up! It’s been a long week and you totally deserve it.

A dreary winter calls for a fresh, citrusy cocktail. This one uses a freshly-squeezed blend of lime and grapefruit juice, gin, tonic water and just a hint of honey to take the edge off.

It’s pretty, pink and just bittersweet enough to keep you wanting more. Be sure to use a high quality tonic (and please not diet!), Fever Tree is my current fav!
